AdipoLABs Co., Ltd. and Red & Blue Co., Ltd. from Korea, together with their Malaysian subsidiary AdipoLABs Healthcare (M) Sdn Bhd, have officially opened a new regional office for Asia-Pacific in Malaysia. This strategic expansion aims to strengthen the company's leadership in non-invasive healthcare and build a robust MedTech ecosystem across Malaysia and ASEAN. As a research and development-focused medical company, this presence is expected to drive knowledge transfer, foster R&D collaboration, provide industry-standard training, and enhance preventive healthcare capabilities in the region.
To commemorate this milestone, the company signed two Memoranda of Understanding with the University of Cyberjaya, formalizing a partnership to advance healthcare innovation, clinical research, and talent development. Mr. Han Sung-ho, CEO of AdipoLABs Co., Ltd., stated that by uniting hyperthermia technology with local expertise and academic rigor, the collaboration will expedite the adoption of advanced solutions and improve patient outcomes worldwide, envisioning it as a blueprint for international healthcare partnerships.
A cornerstone of the first MoU is a comprehensive internship program with UoC's Physiotherapy programs under the Faculty of Health, offering six-month placements and potential job opportunities to give students real-world experience. Students from the Faculty of Health will gain hands-on expertise with AdipoLABs' Pain Bot device, enhancing their skills in pain detection and treatment, while students from the School of Biomedical Engineering will support technical operations, strengthening after-sales service and device maintenance. As part of the partnership, AdipoLABs will implement a strategic client engagement initiative where interns may be placed at client facilities to demonstrate device effectiveness and provide on-site support.
The collaboration also extends to clinical research, with UoC professors and students conducting studies on various AdipoLABs medical devices, generating evidence-based insights to be published in reputable journals and scientifically validating the technologies. Dr. Isaac R. Joseph, Director of AdipoLABs Healthcare (M) Sdn Bhd, expressed enthusiasm about cultivating local talent and driving Malaysian healthcare innovation through this partnership, which offers students hands-on experience with technologies like Pain Bot and expands clinical research to enhance pain management solutions across Malaysia and ASEAN.
In a parallel effort to advance physiotherapy education, AdipoLABs Malaysia, Red & Blue Co., Ltd., and UoC signed a second MoU focused on knowledge transfer and medical device donation. Under this agreement, AdipoLABs Malaysia will donate a Pain Bot unit to UoC, giving students access to cutting-edge pain detection and treatment technology and enhancing their knowledge and skills in innovative musculoskeletal pain management methods. AdipoLABs, a Ministry of Health-registered medical-device establishment under the Medical Device Authority, anchors this collaboration with proven regulatory credibility and a strong commitment to quality and innovation.
Professor Dr. David Whitford, Vice-Chancellor of the University of Cyberjaya, emphasized that this partnership represents a direct investment in the next generation of healthcare professionals, providing students with international-standard tools and real-world innovation that will shape their confidence, competence, and future careers. Further strengthening this collaboration, Professor Dr. Yoo Seung-mo from South Korea, the inventor of the Pain Bot, will serve as an Adjunct Professor at UoC, providing on-site training and ongoing remote mentorship to ensure students receive the highest level of expertise in utilizing Pain Bot technology and applying advanced pain detection and treatment techniques.
Together, UoC and AdipoLABs are positioned to drive forward Malaysia's healthcare innovation agenda with greater confidence and impact. For more information, visit https://www.cyberjaya.edu.my or https://adipolabs-msia.com.
